Synopsis: Not available on home video, this undisputed four-star film has had very limited exposure in the Boston area.
Two Italian con-men go to Albania after the fall of communism to set up a phony shoe business. But, before long, their schemes go awry and they become caught up in the chaos of a world in transition.
"This is the finest Italian film seen in the United States in the last ten years and one destined to become a timeless classic. LAMERICA is a great social and personal drama which builds to a stunning finale in which events, people images, faces, words and even musical score intermingle in a rare display of sublime poetry.
